THE NEW PORK ELECTION.

The returns from New York are very
gratifying to the Democrats. With so many
tickets in the field, the situation was Of 8
complex nature, and few of the ssges
could tell what the outcome would likely
be. The George vote, fortunately, did
! not cut as much figure in the contest as
Hss expected, ard his weakness was Dem
ocratic strength. Almost every vote that
deserted from the ranks OF the
learned theorist returned to strengthen
the Democratic column. The 63, coo votes
given George in the race for Mayor
dwindled down 80 nothing almost, and
left him stranded The power of Mr..
George as political factor is evidently
no longer felt or feared. His theories and
The novelty of his campaign, attracted
many towards him when ne was 3
candidate for mayor who would not, on
reflection, endorse his candidacy for any
other Office, at another time. He has no
helped his cause any by rushing into the
maelstrom OF politics. Those who have
given his doctrines careful consideration
and who believed him to be sincere and
honest enthusiast, were disguised with
his conversion to wire working politi-
clan and left him. II is not intended to
convey the impression that MIR. George
was any more addicted to the tricks of
politics than any Of the other an1idates,
but the ideas which people had formed OF
his character and impulses from reading
his published works were so decidedly
st variance with the character of a poll
tician that bis assuming that role seemed
voluntary surrender OF all claims
upon public Indulgence. As long as Mr..
George advanced his theories merely as
8 philanthropist, they were not antago-
nized, but rather encouraged with good
wishes and kindness for their author, but
as soon as he attempted to convince the
country that the msJority OF people
thought as he did, thst moment the oppo-
siiion was aroused and his su porters de-
serted him. The results are that George
ism in it's present form is thing Of the
past, and that the Democracy is safe in
New York and will be In the next presi-
Dental election. CIeveland's nomination
and re-eIect on ere now assured.

The large amount OF Inert matter CT resi-
dunn in both the phosphate and alum pow
ders will be noted. This in the phosphate
powders is largely OF lime; in the alum
powders it is chiefly alum. It will be
gratifying to the public to observe that
the powder in most general use, the
Royal, is also the purest. In comparing
the first two powders on the list, for in
stance-the Royal and DR. Price's-the
inert matter in Prices is seen to be shout
five in seven more than in the former, .
difference Of II 81 per cent, the Royal
being purer than PIice's by correspond
ing figure.
The carbonic or leavening gas produced
by the powders indicates their strength /;
aud their true value may be sscertsined
Oy considering the amount of this gas in
connection with their inert matter or res
iduum as shown above. The higher the
percentage of gas and the lower the per-
centsge of residuum the better the baking
powder. These percentages, So found in
some Of the most familiar powders, are
given as follows:

George Engel was born in Cagsell, Ger

school education and learned the nrnteTs
trade. He came to America ia 1873, and
in 1874 had reached Chicago, where he
became convert to socialism and later q
rabid anarchist. he it was who funded
the famous northwest group in 1888. The
branch of the International Workingmen's
Association which existed in Chicago
during 1885 and up TO 1886, was COM
pact, we'll disciplined organization. At
the head of it was general or central
committee. Next to it came the Lehr

came the armed sections of the various
"groups," prscticing their weekly drills
at night and on Sundays in various parts
OF the CITY, end, in some instances, under

GERS of the Lehr and Weir Verein Then
came the unarmed members Of the groups
who were constantly in cOntsct with their

Ia VS. made by the people, who connives
at thwartiDg the popular will or who
does not boldly stand up for law, order
and constitutional methods responsible.
Not wilfully or consciously, in the
majority of cases, but innocentlY often,
and unwlttingly. These men enumerated
are not anarchists; they would be
among the first perhaps to buckle on the
bsyonet and defend the country
from anarchist designs, but they
breed the atmosphere and furnish
the indus in which the baleful exotic takes
root. Anarchy, pure and simple, can
never flourish on American soil. The
freedom Of the press and the liberty OF
speech are such SIS to render this unnatu-
raj monster repulsive to the accepted
ideas OF right and justice. It is only in
countries where the liberty of speech is
denied, and where the proletariat amounts
to cipher politically, that these ideas
are engendered-onlY in the damp and
noisome caverns Of poverty and op'
preston can this unwholesome fungus
thrive; it willis and dies when exposed to
the bright sun of liberty that shines on
our free country. Every time political
orator tells the people of the inequality OF
laws an the rule of the rich, every time
ne panders to the passions and prejudjces
of classes, or encourages misconceiVed
ideas among men, he creates discomfort
among the masses, and it is this discon-
tent that nourishes the seeds of violence.
The anarchist advocates murder and the
obstruction of the rich while posing as q
friend of the poor; the demsgogue does
not advocate violence, and would be
among the first to suppress it, but he,
TOO, poses as friend to the poor, and,
with glib tongue, graphically paints the
monopolist in such colors as to convince
mcst any one that killing would DE too
good for them. The unthinking
masses cannot distinguish between
these too self-consfituted champions.
Americans who are familiar with
the institutions of the country
sre not misled, but the ignorant foreign
ers are not so fortunate. There are thou
sands of men in the country who look
upon the execution of the Chicago an
archists as a judicial murder. 1t Is not
their fault but the fault CT the abuse of
American liberty which has indoctrinated
them with false ideas. But the pendulum
will swing back again. Appeals to pas
sion and the vicious instincts OF man will
be frowned upon and healthier atmos-
phere will prevail. The execution Of the
bomb throwing foreigners will tighten
American ties, among Americans in
spirit and purpose, whether native or
foreign born, who will realize that the
laws of the country are Of their own max
ing, and if defective they themselves are
the responsible parties. 1t will arouse
people to sense of their
duties as freemen, who should
be constantly upon the watchtower OF
the citadel exercising that vigilance which
is the price Of liberty. Those who come
from abroad with their bloody creeds will
see that Americans who have won their
independence by valor and pa
triotism, and who have made 1t one of the
greatest nations on earth, are always
ready to as vsliantly defend it from the
attacks of foreign or domestic foes.

to be hanged on Friday, November IL,
1887. a. r. Parsons, the most rsbid OF

edited paper called the ALARM" which
was noted for its general scurrilousness.
Like the Arbeiter Zeitung the Alarm
gave instructions IN the manufacture OF
dynamite and bombs. Not only is Par
sons the most rsbid OF his class, but he Is
also desperate character. He is
dead shot, and was fer years
scout in Texas. Although he made
himself so conspicuous in the riots
ne is not in favor with the mass of ansr-
chists, for, in accordance with his princi-
pies he has always refused to do snv
work and has therefore proved burden
rather than help TO his party. In 1866
he moved to Johnson county, Texas, and
went to school st Waco, and subsequently
became printer on the Galveston News.
When the RGr broke out he ran away
from home snd became a s'powder mon
